Migrants: what is happening where (... and what is Really happening here)

Thousands of migrants and refugees are gathering on the Slovenian side of the Austrian border, after rail links between Slovenia and Croatia were reopened, allowing them to continue their journey across the Balkans. The majority are housed in heated tents but several hundred are forced to live in the open. A second video below shows another view of the crisis...

My cat went to the neighbours to borrow a tiger plush toy :)

Meanwhile in Slovenia, this cat went to the neighbours to borrow their plush tiger toy, since you know, he didn't have one of his own, then proceeded to take it into the bushes where he could play with it, privately.  Too cute!...

Meet Snowboarding Prodigy Tim Kevin Ravnjak

Wow!  This Slovenian kid makes it look so easy slippin', slidin' and flippin' like it was another day in the park - good for him!  Great scenery too!  All courtesy of Red Bull.








As a boy, Tim-Kevin Ravnjak did what most kids do: he played soccer, before he tried other sports. When Tim-Kevin turned six years old his parents bought him a snowboard - and there was no stopping the young Slovenian. In 2006, he signed with Burton Snowboards and Tim-Kevin´s first victory in an international snowboard event came soon after when he won the Burton Amateur Tour event in Klagenfurt in February 2006.

One year later, and Ravnajak was part of the Burton Small's Team. Ravnjak achieved a few of his best career results during the winter season 2010, when he won the Protest World Rookie Finals in the slopestyle competition and took two second places at the Burton European Open in Laax.

In 2011 TK won the junior slopestyle and the third place at junior half pipe contest at the Burton European open and he became vice-champion at the Junior World Championships in slopestyle. He proved again that he is one of the most outstanding rising stars of international snowboarding.
